Increasing road congestion, travel time, number of accidents, carbon dioxide emissions, and fuel consumption are some of the consequences of growth in the vehicle population. Therefore, intelligent traffic controllers are required to solve road traffic congestion problems. The results of prevalent methods, including preset cycle time controller and vehicle-actuated controller, indicated that they do not effectively perform at traffic peak moments. Therefore, due to the deficiency of common methods, fuzzy logic based traffic signal controllers have attracted a lot of attention among researchers. In this article, a fuzzy logic based algorithm for 4-way intersections is proposed and it consists of two main stages for sorting the phase and determining the green light duration. The proposed system is simulated in the MATLAB programming environment and the performance of the designed controller and a conventional controller is compared for some of the presumed conditions. The results of applying the proposed system indicate that this algorithm has a better performance in different traffic conditions in contrast to a preset cycle time controller and it can reduce the number of vehicles behind traffic lights at intersections and the waiting time of passengers.

Traffic congestion is a common occurrence in Indonesia. Traffic congestion is increasing from year to year, causing many things to happen, such as longer travel time, increased transportation costs, serious disruptions to transporting products, decreasing levels of work productivity, and wasteful use of labor energy. Congestion is also caused by a traffic light control system that is made with a fixed time so it can not detect the density of certain paths. Traffic lights in Indonesia, frequent damage that makes the density and the flow of his road vehicles can not be controlled. From these problems, conducted research to reduce the density of vehicles using infrared sensors and see the waiting time of the vehicle when the red light. The traffic light control system will use Fuzzy Logic Mamdani method. In Mamdani method by applying fuzzy into each variable and will be done matching between rule with condition which fulfilled to determine contents of output to be executed by prototype. This congestion detection will help the system in controlling the green light time by looking at stable, medium, and traffic jams. When the bottleneck starts to detect, the prototype will add a green light time according to the condition that is 0 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, and 15 seconds. However, when the streets are not detected by traffic jams, the green light will be back to normal at 15 seconds without additional time

In this paper, we present a new scheme to intelligently control the cycles and phases of traffic lights by exploiting the road traffic data collected by a wireless sensor network installed on the road. The traffic light controller determines the next phase of traffic lights by applying the Ant Colony Optimazation metaheuristics to the information collected by WSN. The objective of this system is to find an optimal solution that gives the best possible results in terms of reducing the waiting time of vehicles and maximizing the flow crossing the intersection during the green light. The results of simulations by the SUMO traffic simulator confirm the preference of the developed algorithm over the predefined time controller and other dynamic controllers.

Road Traffic Congestion

Compared with the expressway, most of the traffic flow in urban road network can be denoted as interrupted traffic flow. Based on the current employed equipment for traffic flow collection and traffic signal control in urban roads, different types of traffic flow in urban roads are analyzed with the traffic flow arrival/departure model in transportation engineering. Mathematical models complying with traffic flow changes are utilized to match the traffic flow in both entry and exit road blocks, thus, enabled the automatic detection of traffic incident. This algorithm provides a measurement for the automatic judgment of urban road congestion and the expansion utility of intelligent transportation facilities in urban areas.

The increasing volume of traffic in cities has a significant effect on road traffic congestion and the travel time it takes for road users to reach their destinations. Coordinating traffic signals, which is a system of light that cascade in sequence where a platoon of vehicles can travel through a continuous series of green light without stopping, can improve the driver's experience significantly. This report covers the development of a coordinated traffic signal system along Wellington Street West from Church Street to Blue Jays Way Street as part of a City of Toronto signal coordination project. The objective of this study is to improve coordination through modification of signal timing plans while maintaining reasonably minimal impacts to the side street levels of service and delays. The overall goal is to reduced travel times, delays, number of stops and fuel consumption, resulting in public benefit.

Abstract The paper aims to explore the possibilities of improving road traffic in the central area of cities characterized by a longitudinal arrangement of the street network, with application for the case of Pitesti, where the road network in the central area consists of two main roads arranged longitudinally, having one-way regulated traffic, interconnected by several streets. A special traffic problem is reported in the city center: on the main road connecting the two boulevards, the vehicle storage space is insufficient - because the distance between the two road intersections is too small and there is no correlation between the Green phases of traffic lights in the two intersections. The research, based on traffic measurements performed with DataFromSky software and micro-simulation traffic analyses performed with Vissim PTV software, indicated that the best solution is the partial or total correlation of the green time from the traffic light intersections that delimit the connecting road artery. As, almost exclusively, the works dedicated to the correlation of green light of traffic lights treat the problem only along the road arteries, this paper raises a special issue and reveals the possibility of simple solutions, by correlating the traffic lights at the intersections connecting the main arteries.

Traffic Light Control

Traffic jams are a common sight that can be seen in almost all major cities in Indonesia. One of them is in Rangkasbitung City, Lebak Regency. This happens because the number of vehicles continues to increase. The traffic light control system implemented in Indonesia is a static preset time because the time of each phase is predetermined. This type of control system is still not effective in overcoming traffic congestion, especially at certain peak traffic jams. By using the Mamdani fuzzy logic system, it is possible to implement the human mindset into a system. Some rules can be set out in the fuzzy logic controller. The purpose of this study is to design a traffic light control system using fuzzy inference that regulates traffic based on its density. The data used are observations made at the research site. The conclusion of this study is to explain that the fuzzy mamdani method can solve existing problems in traffic congestion in Rangkasbitung City, Lebak Regency, Banten Province

Every country's vehicular traffic is increasing, growing, and there is terrible traffic congestion at intersections. In the current case, most traffic lights have a fixed light sequence, so green light sequence is to determine with-out taking priority vehicles into account. As a result, priority crews such as police cars, ambulances, fire engines are still unable to perform, get stuck in traffic and come in late, which can result in the loss of valuable property and life, which does happen on occasion. The green light sequence is evaluated given the current state of traffic, without taking into account the existence of emergency vehicles. Our aim to this paper is to present a mechanism for scheduling emergency vehicles. It is provided to important such as access control protocol to convey emergency vehicle information to the Traffic Management Center (TMC) with time delay and to all alerts while using GPS techniques for acquiring emergency vehicle information. Only then is the emergency vehicle quickly dispatched, and the destination is reached on time. It would be helpful in the future for the prominence of casual vehicles.
